1 Best Journal Articles of Staying in touch with the literature etoc
2 Best Journal Articles of 2007 Is it interesting? Does it make me think differently? Will it change what I do? Topics UTI - MSU technique UTI - investigations UTI - Antibiotics x 2 Steroids for bronchiolitis Desmopressin in enuresis IBD screening
3 UTI - MSU technique To clean or not to clean: effect on contamination rates in midstream urine collections in toilet-trained children. Pediatrics 2007 Jun; 119:e x 2-18 year old in ED with?uti (60% girls) Randomised to clean or not clean perineum (retract foreskin / labia then wash with gauze & liquid soap) vs no cleaning Contamination rates (well defined) UTI - MSU technique 7% confirmed UTI Contamination rates Clean 8% Non-clean 24% Predictive value of +ve dipstick test (nitrites/l-esterase/both) Clean 40.5% Non-clean 12.7% Conclusion: Clean!
4 UTI oral vs IV antibiotics Antibiotic treatment for pyelonephritis in children: multicentre randomised controlled non-inferiority trial BMJ 2007;335: children 1 month to 7 years with confirmed UTI Subgroup with acute pyelonephritis signs + acute DMSA Excluded severe sepsis/dehydration/vomiting++ Randomised to IV Ceftriaxone vs oral Amox/clavulanate Short term & 1 year outcomes UTI oral vs IV antibiotics Results No difference overall (n=502) and in pyelonephritis sub-group (n= 278) for Duration of fever, inflammatory markers at 72 hours, sterile urine at 72 hours, DMSA abnormalities at 12 months? Enough young kids 185 <6 months of age Conclusion In non-septic, non vomiting kids with UTI, even with pyelonephritis oral antibiotics are appropriate initial treatment
5 UTI - investigation Urinary tract infection in children: diagnosis, treatment and long-term management. National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) How much should we investigate after 1 st UTI? UTI - investigation
6 UTI - investigation UTI - investigation
7 UTI investigation RCH Renal US UTI investigation RCH MCU
8 UTI - investigation Does this change the need for SPA / CSU? UTI antibiotic prophylaxis Recurrent Urinary Tract Infections in Children Risk Factors and Association With Prophylactic Antimicrobials JAMA. 2007;298: Several association questions Do prophylactic antibiotics reduce risk of recurrent UTI?
9 UTI antibiotic prophylaxis Large primary care network over 5 years 611 had proven 1st episode UTI Antibiotic prophylaxis recorded (80% no) Results Recurrence rate 15% No difference overall or in any sub-group with vs without antibiotics (OR = 1.01 CI 0.5 to 2.02) Risk of recurrence with resistant organism much higher in antibiotic group (OR = 7.5 CI 1.6 to 35.17) UTI antibiotic prophylaxis Conclusion No apparent benefit from prophylactic antibiotics Evidence of harm (resistance) (cost, side-effects, selection pressure) Not an RCT
10 UTI antibiotic prophylaxis Clinical Significance of Primary Vesicoureteral Reflux and Urinary Antibiotic Prophylaxis After Acute Pyelonephritis: A Multicenter, Randomized, Controlled Study PEDIATRICS Vol. 117 No. 3 March 2006, pp UTI antibiotic prophylaxis 236 kids aged 3 months to 18 years with confirmed pyelonephritis. Early DMSA & MCU Grade IV & V reflux excluded Randomised (stratified by VUR +/-) to SMX-TMP (or Nitrofurantoin) vs placebo. Followed 1 year incl DMSA scan at end.
11 UTI antibiotic prophylaxis Results Recurrence rate 20.1% For non-vur group antibiotics vs placebo no difference For VUR group (not higher overall) antibiotics vs placebo no difference But more pyelonephritis in those with antibiotics (7 vs 1) All resistant organisms UTI antibiotic prophylaxis Conclusion No clear increased risk of UTI or PN in VUR (GI-III) No apparent benefit from prophylactic antibiotics overall or in VUR (GI-III) Evidence of harm (resistance) (cost, side-effects, selection pressure) Is there still a place for antibiotic prophylaxis after 1 st UTI beyond 3 months of age?
12 Steroids for bronchiolitis A Multicenter, Randomized, Controlled Trial of Dexamethasone for Bronchiolitis N Engl J Med 2007;357: ED Centres 2-12 months 1st episode wheezing & RDAI 6+ Several exclusions 8686 infants considered 600 enrolled 1mg/kg dexamethasone vs placebo Outcome Hospitalisation and RDAI improvement after 4 hours. Steroids for bronchiolitis Results
13 Steroids for bronchiolitis Results Steroids for bronchiolitis Conclusion Steroids unhelpful in 1 st wheezing illness infants 2-12 months? Older infants? Recurrent wheeze? The most sick
14 Desmopressin in enuresis Relief of Nocturnal Enuresis by Desmopressin is Kidney and Vasopressin Receptor Independent J Am Soc Nephrol 18: , How does desmopressin work in PNE? Desmopressin reduces bedwetting by reducing the amount of urine produced at night Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews 2002 Desmopressin in enuresis Desmopressin very effective in PNE but: Fluid restriction has never been successful. Desmopressin does not reduce urine volume in most pts.
15 Desmopressin in enuresis Study of 1 patient! 10 year old boy with Diabetes Insipidus +ve water deprivation test No response to desmopressin - Nephrogenic Familial Also had Nocturnal Enuresis Someone started him on desmopressin Dry immediately Desmopressin in enuresis On and off desmopressin several times with reliable response. Could the effect of desmopressin be due to something else than reduced urine volume? Vasopressin 3 receptor (AVPR1B) is distributed widely in the brain. Arousal.? Arousal effect rather than anything to do with fluids. Tricyclic antidepressants also stimulate this. The Lancet 2002;359:495
16 IBD screening Laboratory Values for Children With Newly Diagnosed Inflammatory Bowel Disease PEDIATRICS Vol. 119 No. 6 June 2007, pp Can blood tests help diagnose / exclude IBD 526 children with IBD 392 Crohn 134 UC Utility of Hb, Plts, ESR, Albumin IBD screening
17 IBD screening IBD screening Blood tests not v useful in excluding IBD Haematochezia very sensitive Add no haematochezia to no abnormal blood tests much improved negative predictive value. Endoscopy for typical symptoms, especially haematochezia, irrespective of blood tests
